whats the biggest drag radial can put on my em1 wit a 16' wheel with a 40mm offset....HELP..the car will be street driven

 

i've seen 255's on a jacked up EK before.

 

not an em1 but here is fullrace-geoff's civic, i believe he has 255's on his 16" rota's...

 

255!!.. thanks one f'n wide tire!!

 

255's on an EM1 (16x7" Rota's ):



Soon to be my next purchase, 225's feel tiny now

 

doesnt that car have a 15 up front???

Yeah it does, it's mine.

 

do u have any rubbing problems with it.. cuz im looking into geting that setup...

 

What would have better traction? The 16" rim or the 15" rim?

It is my thinking the 16" tire would have better traction....at least for anything over 400WHP.

Can somone elaborate on this theory....if there is anything to elaborate about.

I like the way the 225 BFGs look on the 15" tire!

I am thinking about doing this and leaving my 16's out back.

 

Those 16's look INSANE, and most definitely would hook better than my "measly" 225's

Here's another comparison of 225/50/15's up front (BFG's) and 205/45/16's in the back:



vs. my full set of 16's on (I leave my pair of 16's I had up front in storage for when I want to AutoX ):



I wish I could find a 205/45/16 drag radial. I miss the cleanliness, but don't miss the wheelspin.
